Moving this chamber organ, possibly by Mirlees, to Leeds RC centre

Michael and Lesley Leadbeater dismantling the chamber organ.

Our main task this week was to dismantle and move this early 19th century chamber organ into the Leeds Roman Catholic Diocese administration centre in Hinsley Hall, Leeds.

Its provenance is yet to be established, although it is thought to be the work of an Edinburgh organ builder, possibly Mirlees.
